Sammanfattning	Bayesian ego network analysis applies probabilistic inference to ego-centered (personal) network data, combining a likelihood model for the ego's local network with prior distributions over network parameters. The result is a full posterior distribution that quantifies uncertainty about structural features such as alter composition, tie density, and network size — rather than producing point estimates alone.	Bayesian Social Network Analysis applies Bayesian probabilistic inference to relational data, placing prior distributions over network parameters and updating them with observed tie data to yield full posterior distributions over structural features, tie probabilities, and latent actor positions. It enables principled uncertainty quantification in network models, making it especially valuable when data are sparse, partially observed, or subject to measurement error.
